Ahuva, who lives in Mazkeret-Batia, Israel, calls her creation “The Beauty of Color.” Inspired by her own affection for color, Ahuva beautifully layered fabrics and colors, creating a feeling of lightness and romanticism. The dress is machine sewn and free-motion embroidered using metallic threads. It is embellished with Swarovski® crystals.
Ahuva has made traditional quilts for many years, but has become fascinated by the possibilities of quilted fashion from the basics to complete design. Her garments, inspired by the surroundings of her small rural home in Israel, are exhibited in shows throughout Europe.
